DOI: 10.1007/s00227-019-3492-6
Abstract: Rocky shore communities usually show complex patterns of compositional variation in space and time. Yet, this does not rule out the possibility of observing coherent temporal trends in aggregate community variables (e.g., biomass and number… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.earscirev.2020.103358
Abstract: Abstract Ridge and runnel features were originally described by King and WiIliams (1949) from observations at Blackpool beach (U.K.) and laboratory experiments. They were characterised as intertidal, shore-parallel sandbars (ridges), commonly 2–6 bars in total,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2021.106471
Abstract: Abstract Most research on shore platforms has been at fairly large spatial scales over distances ranging from hundreds to thousands of metres. Other work at much smaller scales, ranging from one to several decimetres, often… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marmicro.2018.12.003
Abstract: Abstract Interactions between foraminifera and macrofauna have been little studied, especially on rocky coasts. This paper examines (a) the foraminiferal tests captured from suspension by the polychaete Sabellaria alveolata in an intertidal area on a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/jfm.2021.293
Abstract: Abstract We present an analytical study of two-dimensional flow in a wedge driven by a time-dependent surface heat flux as a model problem to understand buoyancy-induced cross-shore flow. Besides the turbulent Prandtl number and the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-91949-y
Abstract: Many studies show the sensitivity of our environment to manmade changes, especially the anthropogenic impact on atmospheric and hydrological processes. The effect on Solid Earth processes such as subsidence is less straightforward. Subsidence is usually… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/2158244017706597
Abstract: Shore platforms and salinas in the Mediterranean region have a long-standing relationship, rooted in the traditional practice of salt making. On small islands with limited natural resources, the production of salt from seawater, through insolation… read more here.
